    I don’t Know if these two are related but here are the facts

    1. Started wearing my first pair of Wesco a about 2 weeks ago
    2. My Plantar Fasciitis in my foot has cleared up.

    Either way… Thank frigging baby Jesus.

    But I think they are related.

    Maybe so. Maybe not

      I forgot how much I love these Wescos.

      This is the Division rd makeup. I actually got them as seconds but never really figured out why. They are perfect

        I'm a firm believer in wearing supportive footwear to prevent and treat foot problems. Congrats!

          I meant to answer this too. I’d say your footwear upgrade played a pretty big role in your troubles clearing up. I’m sure a lot of quality boot brands would have had the same effect but the Wesco last design and construction is intended for work in some pretty intensive, demanding jobs. I found my feet are much, much happier after moving from predominately wearing sneakers to Wesco, more days than not.

                I wore my Wescos every day while deployed on a ship, and it was a pleasure donning my boots every morning, and after that, I didn't even think about my feet until the day was over. That's how it should be.

                      Looks like it’s the brown domain

                        Those look sick! I ordered that pair too but I don’t think mine will be done for a month or so.

                              I have a sample of it. It's darker and more uniform on the smooth side and the rough side is the color of chocolate. Wouldn't mind getting a pair of Jobmasters with it down the road.

                                I have three or four pairs of Boss with the MP toe in different leathers but got my first pair with the OG bump toe/ boss last this summer. Did them with harness straps and in black oil tan. I love them but I want more or less the same pair in brown too. I love the oil tanned leather for it’s weight and waterproofing but I’m concerned it is too dark…

                                      Decided to make mimics of the Lynch Silversmith and 100th Anniversary Horsehide Boss boots with the same exact materials that were offered in Japan minus one or two tweaks not available here (let’s see if anybody notices what is missing).  Notice the price btw.![](http://.[mug alt=)
